Auto-restart playback to a UPnP device
In unmanned situations such as industrial applications and digital signs, it is useful to automatically have a stream played to a digital media player, even if Pearl-2 restarts.
To configure auto-restart of a stream to a media player:
- Login to the Admin panel as admin, see Connect to Admin panel.
- From the Configuration menu, click UPnP. The UPnP configuration page opens.
- In the Play on service start section, select a stream from the Live stream drop-down list.
- Select a digital media player from the Player drop-down list. Digital media players on your network that support UPnP playback appear automatically in the list.
- Click Apply.
Only a single stream and player combination can be configured for auto play. The channel's UPnP configuration must be enabled for it to appear.
